How it got here
The legislation originated from the need to comply with California's Daylighting to Save Lives Bill, which mandates parking restrictions near crosswalks to enhance pedestrian safety.
The California State Legislature passed Assembly Bill No. 413, known as the Daylighting to Save Lives Bill, which prohibits parking within specified distances of crosswalks to improve visibility and pedestrian safety.
The Board of Supervisors unanimously adopted Resolution No. 248-19, urging the San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency to develop a comprehensive daylighting plan and implement parking restrictions at intersection corners.
The Board of Supervisors adopted Resolution No. 632-24, urging the SFMTA to implement red zones for daylighting at all crosswalks and intersections to comply with AB 413.
Resolution No. 632-24 became effective without the Mayor's signature, following the Board's adoption.
